Marking the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
It is with great sadness that our organization, The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award USA, and our friends throughout the world within The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award Association and Foundation, acknowledge the death of Her Majesty The Queen.
The Queen was a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to public service. We are grateful that she used her influence to help shape and enrich the lives of generations throughout the world. Her enthusiastic support of her husband Prince Phillip, our founder, has enabled The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award globally to empower millions of young people with the skills, confidence, and self-belief to reach their full potential.
We are grateful for their support, and thank especially His Royal Highness, The Earl of Wessex and Forfar, for his continued leadership of the Award worldwide.
Our thoughts are with the Royal Family at this sad time.
